man procmailrc ..in fact

      finds  available.  If the mailbox name ends in "/", then this 
directory
        is presumed to be a maildir folder; i.e.,  procmail  will  deliver 
the
        message  to  a  file  in a subdirectory named "tmp" and rename it 
to be
        inside a subdirectory named "new".  If the mailbox is specified  to 
be
        an  MH  folder  or  maildir  folder, procmail will create the 
necessary
        directories if they don't exist, rather than treat  the  mailbox 
as  a
        non-existent filename.  When procmail is delivering to directories, 
you
        can specify multiple directories to deliver to  (procmail  will  do 
so
        utilising hardlinks).
